    I remember in about 1967 sitting in the car overhearing a "sister" present an article in the awake, "Keeping cool in summer hear." The householder asked her: "What does that have to do with the bible?" I thought that's a good question, but the "sister," of course, was disgusted at the householder.

    I would have to say it was an edition that featured an article about Jesus being a refugee. That might've been an Awake...but I'm sure u all understand.

    Good Lord!

    ONE....

    I remember another 1 it was a watchtower on familys being happy, it was just the way the elder with me presented it "oh it was so funny lol !!!.He said something like familys can be happy to the woman, and she replied saying what you trying to say" my family is happy" i was laugthing so much at that one. ILL tell you something though i always had a good laugh on the door to door work i didnt take it as serious as most but still there you go

    There was a pink or mauve colored magazine, around 1994 or 1995 on Boredom. It was an Asleep! mag I think. The householder laughed at it. I can't believe nobody has mentioned the infamous "Mystery of the Alpine Iceman" Awake. Even the most die-hard dubbies in my congo were embarrassed at that one.

    My worst one was on Family Planning, talking about birth control , spacing children etc.

    I was standing there at the door with one kid in my hand picking on the householders cat, one in the car, and a belly sticking way out. I was 8 months pregnant. I felt like a hypocrite and I should practice what I preached.

    Can't remember if I was going door to door at the time, but the awake with MENOPAUSE splashed across the front.

    What kind of lead in is that?

    Menopause, your life forever on earth!

    Years ago there was one on "Cleanliness" and me and a teenage guy were at a door of a rather run-down decrepit house that looked like the Clampets used to live there........anyhoo, we weren't too interested in placing the mags, so the guy I was with just said "we're offering the W&A for fifty cents."

    Amazingly, the householder (who looked like he was still drunk from the night before and didn't know what the word "cleanliness" even meant) went to get fifty cents, and while in the other room, my partner goes "what a fly-infested dump!" I smashed him hard because the window on the door was open and I'm sure the guy heard.......I never forgot that, I was so embarassed!!!
